id just like to ask if the n6600 performance is affected (ie slower performance) if you use a higher capacity card (ie 256MB)? has anyone tried using a 256MB MMC card from transcend?!? does it work fine?!?

I've a 256MB KingMax card that works wonderfully while it's in my N-Gage. I can connect it to my PC through an MMC card reader and transfer files, then put it into my N-Gage and it's fine. However, when I try to connect the N-Gage to the PC using the USB cable, the PC doesn't recognize the phone as a flash drive as it should. When I use a 16MB card in the N-Gage instead of the 256MB card and connect the N-Gage to the PC with the USB cable, the PC recognizes the phone just fine. Wondering if anybody knows of a card that doesn't have this problem, or of a way to fix it?

Being able to connect the phone to the PC directly through USB with the 256MB card would be prime. 😊 Please let me know if any of you know a way to make this work. Thanks!

It should work. I'm selling NCP 128/256/512 MMC.

I just bought a Transcend 1GB MMC (�137). According to the manufacturer it should be compatible with the Nokia 6600 and it seems to be true. It works fine so far (but formatting takes long time).

I bought a 128MB card off an eBay shop for �10.99 and worked fine. Never had to format it.

Last week I bought a 1GB mmc card from a shop in West Sussex (UK), the sticker on it says "Prestige" and cost me �54.00 which is good considering I couldnt find one for less than �90.

Not bad hey 😃

guyz got a 64mb card twin mos frum saudi just for 23 $ works great no need to format.

Folks,
MMC is a standard. Why would any card not work with 6600/6620?
According to the manual there is no limit on size....

I am using a 512MB card from Kingmax. I got it for $63 including shipping from newegg.com

When you get a large card get a Card Reader also. Any transfer through the phone take forever!!!! I am using my digital camera (Optio) for that purpose (connects to PC via USB cable) 😊))

MMC cards are getting cheaper every day!!!undefined

Guys,
I've seen here that ppl say that TEC 512MB and A-Data cards Works great on the 6600,
Does it mean that they'll work the same on the N-Gage ?
BTW, is TEC and A-Data considered reliable compeny
like PQI and LG ?
